The third in line to the throne is 2 months old (err 9 weeks at the time of this posting, but close enough for government work as we used to say….or maybe that was just me). He’s spent these past few weeks, doing one thing and one thing only, holding all his chub close to…

I think I gave Shep the wrong animal emoji upon his birth (the things I think about at 3am). I picked a sweet sheep to carry him through the instagram world because…Shepherd…herding sheep…baa baa black sheep, obvious right? However he’s proving that his true spirit animal is actually…..a pig, pig nose one included. CUZ HE…

Sheppy Shep the king of the chins, gassy guzzler, lover of swaddles, pacis and older siblings is one month old. (Actually he’s 5 weeks old, but that falls within the realm of being one month old, right?) He’s basically doubled in size… I can’t confirm that for certain because there’s no scale readily accesible, but…

I made this comment to Pete the other day: “I both can’t believe it’s been 3 weeks already…and then at the same time I can’t believe it’s ONLY been 3 weeks that he’s been here” Shep is 22 days new today. It’s easy to remember how old the little one is because the other brother…

I’ll never look at Five Guys French Fries ever the same…and no it has nothing to do with food poisoning or a bad reaction or anything…but because it forced me to endure 8 hours of god awful labor and I forever will be salty towards them (get it…salty…heh heh). I prepared myself to go into…

At one of our favorite local parks, there is this floating walk way thing which is just a floating death trap. There are a bunch of death traps at this park, like the floating ladder with big gaps in between the rungs which just screams broken arm, but this floating bridge thing has been a…

If you had asked me how my kids would react when the baby arrived, it probably would have gone something like this: “Emma will probably be shouting “Emma help you” every 5 seconds and spend her entire day say “Awww, baby so cute” and giving him kisses. Luke will probably pop in and out, give…

Today, the first born in the Goggin gang turns 5. It’s no exaggeration that Luke has been talking about turning 5…since about the day after he turned 4. Not sure what it is about the age of 5, but Luke thinks it holds a super power. He woke up today and was determined that he…

When I started researching party venues for Luke’s 5th birthday party, it made me want to punch every business owner in the kidneys for how much they charged for these suckers. Literally, in the kidneys. $400 for 90 minutes to use your precious party room and sip on watered down lemonade for only 10 kids…

Welp…it’s practically been an entire year since I’ve visited this thing. I had to reset my password…cuz I don’t remember the things anymore, and this thing has blown outta my brain the past year. I’ve replaced long rants and sarcastic life recaps with daily Instagram micro-updates with snarky captions and descriptive emojis (except a ballet…

I’ve come out of hiding to share with you potentially the greatest video I have ever taken. There’s dancing. There’s prancing. There’s interpretive movement. There’s a toddler saying he potentially peed in his power ranger costume (he didn’t). There’s costumes. There’s insanity from too many days of rain. There’s just…THIS.
